For Platform Engineering & Security Teams ![Calico Platform logo](https://wordpress-1075849-4005834.cloudwaysapps.com/app/uploads/2026/03/calico-icon.svg) ### Calico Platform #### The AI-powered platform for Kubernetes networking and security. Calico Platform unifies management and control across your entire workload communication stack — powered by Calico OSS, Istio, Envoy, and eBPF — through a single console. No integration tax. Works across every Kubernetes distribution, VM, and bare metal host. Your team stays in control wherever workloads run. #### No integration tax One operator installs, configures, and manages your full networking and security stack. No stitching tools together yourself. #### No vendor lock-in Move workloads freely across Kubernetes distributions and providers, on your terms. #### AI-powered operations Automatically evaluate traffic flows, get policy recommendations, and troubleshoot with AI-powered tools that return time to your team.

Do you know what they’re authorized to do? AI agents are autonomous, distributed, and increasingly embedded in critical business processes — running anywhere across your organization, often beyond the reach of traditional security controls. TAG gives security and AI teams complete visibility into agent behavior and the authorization controls to govern what agents are permitted to do — before they do something they shouldn’t. #### Full visibility — everywhere You can't control what you can't see. Get complete visibility into what every AI agent is doing, what it's accessing, and how it's behaving — regardless of where it runs. #### Authorization before action Traditional security tools audit what agents did after the fact. Tigera enforces what agents are permitted to do before they act — automatically, continuously, and without slowing your AI teams down. #### Audit-ready by default Every agent action, authorization decision, and policy enforcement event is logged and traceable — so you're always ready for the audit, the incident review, or the board question.
